Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day, now more than ever. www.npr.org/2010/01/18/1...
One of biggest Purdue University stories this year. Excellent reporting by The Purdue Exponent (independent student paper). CEO of new pharma provider gave PU $20m this year. Recruiter in College of Engineering paying $1K/mo for type 1 diabetes meds, had to move in with his parents to afford it.
I’m shocked. My wife suggested early on Sunday we watch Spinal Tap II: The End Continues - which we did after dinner. She went to bed and I continued watching the original. I woke up this morning to this terrible news about the Reiners. 💔 www.nytimes.com/live/2025/12...

I’ve always felt it was sleazy how major news outlets promoted Prime Day–presumably to insert their affiliate links. This year it’s downright treasonous. F#%k Bezos & Amazon & support businesses who aren’t evil. I’m looking at you @wired.com @theverge.com @nymag.com to name a few I saw this morning
Your move, American companies and universities.
Marriott’s CEO said it straight: “We welcome all… we create opportunities for all… that’s who we are as a company.” He went back to his hotel to find 40K emails from Marriott associates worldwide saying “thank you.” Plenty of CEOs talk. Capuano showed up. Marriott still has my business.
Timeline cleanse: I want to be more like this guy (Olafur Eliasson). We should all try to be more like him. Art can give us light and hope in the darkness. Full video from Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles www.instagram.com/reel/DGQ6hcU...
I believe this is the artist’s account @olafureliasson.bsky.social
@aoc.bsky.social is a great start. These old bastards are why we are in this situation (not including @sanders.senate.gov).
Watch Fascism unfold in real time as countless government agency websites disappear before our eyes.
NEW: US government websites are disappearing in real time, including sites for the US Agency for International Development, foreign assistance, neglected diseases, and children in adversity. We analyzed more than 1000 .gov websites to track what's been taken down—and what's next. wrd.cm/4aFMs5A

usaid.gov is dead. Insanity.
They took down the U.S. A.I.D website. Unbelievable.
Support independent journalism www.thehandbasket.co/p/omb-memo-f... @marisakabas.bsky.social
and yet no major tv, audio or print outlet has publicly talked to me about it. and getting credit has been a strain. not sure what gives.
Live to see them die.
Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last. Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.
